Michael Crabtree's Top 5 Superstitions

by Fooch on May 4, 2009 12:04 PM PDT in News Comment 19 comments

I received a second video from the Subway PR folks and I thought I'd roll it out. It's probably a little bit of Michael Crabtree overload, but it's good to have "characters" on the team.

In this video Crabtree discusses his top 5 superstitions. Some are not all that surprising. He's going to have to change one of his superstitions since he's no longer at Texas Tech (or maybe he can make it work out here). However, the fact that he has an imaginary friend named Oscar is pretty funny (see #1). If I can ever score an interview with Crabtree, that is something I'll definitely be asking about.

As always, this video, and future videos, can be seen at Subway Freshbuzz.

ok, i've worked out the stats, and...

a 1st-round WR has a 15.49% chance of making the Pro Bowl if he has an imaginary friend.

you’re welcome.

Thanks, but it doesn't seem complete...

We need a comprehensive breakdown/statistical analysis of Imaginary Friends, and qualify it to YPP, DVOA, etc., and also qualify before the NFL had stats on Imaginary Friends, maybe even beyond that. Like, how they impacted the Brooklyn Football Tigers/Dodgers.

Well, we're waiting....

Cool Video...

But I kind of feel like Subway should be paying you if you’re going to be posting their commercials for them.

pay

No pay, but it gets me some quick content to post, which can be a good thing when things are quieting down.

I hear “patting the saddle” has a different meaning in San Francisco than in West Texas.

After all is said and done, more is said than done.

Yea...

He’s a colorful dude isnt he? Hope his imaginary friend Oscar tells him to catch TD’s!

Another year, another chance to hope for the team !!

Imaginary friend, Oscar

I think we’ll definitely need to make Oscar a semi-regular part of Niners Nation.

Just ordered a new custom niners Jersey

Number 5 – OSCAR

Blind devotion.

That's just plain awesome

Rec’d that one. We need to get some kind of Oscar movement going.

Now

Now I don’t feel so bad about my imaginary friend.

imaginary friend?

what a diva. geez

"I'll be honest with you, I love his music, I do, I'm a Michael Bolton fan. For my money, I don't know if it gets any better than when he sings "When a Man Loves a Woman"

diva's have no friends

So maybe that’s a good thing? Or is it egotistical to think he can just make up a friend? I’m SOOOOO confused!

by Fooch on May 4, 2009 7:27 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

Let me clarify

Crabs is not a diva cuz he would be squeezing every cent out of subway is he was i mean look at jared. Oh and diva’s have friends just not imaginary ones. So Oscar is a good thing ;)

Don't we all have imaginary friends?...

On the Internet?

Well, we're waiting....

This is no TO

I think this guy’s the real deal.
He is confident, and can laugh at himself.
In TO’s first years, he referred to his teammates as ‘Sir’ and ‘Mister’. You could say out of respect, but he was probably a nut case from day 1.
